Long non-coding RNA SNHG1 suppresses cell migration and invasion and upregulates SOCS2 in human gastric carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Gastric carcinoma (GC) is one of the most common malignancies and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) may be an important class of functional regulators involved in human gastric cancers development. In this study, we investigated the clinical significance and function of lncRNA SNHG1 in GC. SNHG1 was significantly downregulated in GC tumor tissues compared with adjacent noncancerous tissues. Overexpression of SNHG1 in BGC-823 cells remarkably inhibited not only cell proliferation, migration, invasion in vitro, but also tumorigenesis and lung metastasis in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay in vivo. Conversely, inhibition of SNHG1 by transfection of siRNA in AGS cells resulted in opposite phenotype chang
